Shower tray repair at your home in Nisbet
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Nisbet as everywhere else we work.

What affects the price in Nisbet
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Questions from Nisbet
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover Nisbet?
We do. We send a technician to Nisbet for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
